Oh, lookee, Saddam finally got around to fabricating paperwork. Like we didn't see this one coming. Personally, I think Bush ought to take him up on the debate offer. Televised from a secured room in DC.

UNITED NATIONS, Feb 25 (Reuters) - Iraq has informed U.N. arms inspectors of the discovery of some 100 documents dealing with the disposal of weapons of mass destruction in 1991, chief weapons inspector Hans Blix said on Tuesday.

Iraq has also informed inspectors of the discovery of an R-400 bomb containing liquid in an area where Baghdad was known to have disposed of biological weapons in the past, Blix told reporters.

He said the new disclosures, which he described as "positive and which need to be explored further," came in a series of six letters sent to his U.N. Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission in the past three days.

"There is one letter in which they tell us that they have found a R-400 bomb containing liquid in a site which we is known to us and (at) which they did dispose of biological weapons before," Blix said.

You never know. I think it's important to keep an open mind. If this situation can be resolved without war, we owe it to ourselves to pursue every possible alternative.
